I moved the background section to the top, to improve the sequential flow of the story, which I expanded a bit. But I am wondering about Megrahi's very early back story, seems a lot is missing thereSteven Russell 08:12, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] US Charges

I think that this article goes into far too much detail concerning the US eg. putting him on the FBI wanted list, etc at the expense of discussing the Scottish aspect. After all, it was in Scotland, not the US, that he was eventually brought to trial.

Latest news is astonishing: 'A Swiss businessman on Monday said that a key piece of evidence in the Lockerbie trial was faked, following a French press report that one of his employees had lied to Scottish investigators. ... In fact, Mebo employee Ulrich Lumpert has now admitted that the device he handed over to Scottish investigators was one he himself had stolen from the company, rather than part of a batch delivered to Libya in the 1980s.

"The exhibits were manipulated and used to make a link between Libya and the attack," Bollier said. http://www.middle-east-online.com/english/?id=21895
